More than 30 years ago, Sui Guiyun married in Sanzalou Village, Taitou Town, she found that many elderly people like to wear hats when they go out, and she is more good at needlework, so she bought wool and made an appointment with her sisters to knit hats for more than 100 elderly people in the village. Since then, every year. In 2016, Sui Guiyun's Shande Public Welfare launched a public welfare activity of making cotton clothes for the elderly, and she responded positively, bought fabrics and cotton, and specially vacated a room in the factory office building to hand-sew cotton clothes for the elderly with volunteers. Today, this activity has become the prescribed action of Sui Guiyun after the autumn every year.
"Girl, I haven't finished eating what I brought last time, so I've brought it again. "You have to eat, don't be reluctant. In an ordinary courtyard in Sanzalou Village, Sui Guiyun entered the door with a large bag and a small bag, and a blind old man greeted him, and the two naturally chatted about family life.
Such scenes are staged from time to time.
The old man has no children and no daughters, Sui Guiyun after understanding the situation, sent T-shirts in summer, cotton clothes in winter, usually sent eggs, milk, bedding and other daily necessities to the elderly, Mid-Autumn Festival, Spring Festival to the elderly pocket money, with family to visit the elderly...... took on the responsibility of being a daughter.
In recent years, Sui Guiyun's business has been on the right track, and she has devoted more energy to public welfare.
Since 2010, Sui Guiyun has donated 5,000 yuan every year for the "Double Ninth Festival for the Elderly" held in the village. In 2017, the first rural happiness house in Shouguang City was built in Sanlou Village, and Sui Guiyun took out 1 million yuan to set up a fund for the elderly in Shouguang Charity Federation to improve the facilities and daily expenses of the happiness home, and 210,000 yuan has been cashed out.

"Sui's mother is like a beam of light in the darkness, giving me warmth and strength, it is she who has changed my life. —Sponsored students
Helping the poor and helping students, she is the warm-hearted "Sui mother" of the children
"How's the e-commerce business going?" ”...... In the office, Sui Guiyun was chatting with a young woman hand in hand, like an intimate mother and daughter. The young woman's name is Xiaoqin (pseudonym), and when it comes to Sui Guiyun, Xiaoqin bluntly said, "Without Sui's mother, there would be no current me."
It all started fifteen years ago.
Fifteen years ago, Xiaoqin's parents died in an accident, and because she had no financial resources, she planned to drop out of school and go home to help her grandmother with farm work. Sui Guiyun learned about Xiaoqin's family from a friend and immediately drove over. "Don't worry, I will cover your study and living expenses in the future!" a promise, more than ten years of dedication. From primary school to university, Xiaoqin's tuition fees for each semester were paid by Sui Guiyun on time, she prepared the clothes for the four seasons early, and she never stopped the daily necessities of her grandchildren.
After Xiaoqin graduated from university, Sui Guiyun helped her start an e-commerce business and sent her to get married. "She treats me as a daughter, and she will urge marriage and birth like ordinary mothers. I regard her as my own mother, and I am willing to talk to her if I have any troubles...... "Xiaoqin said.
Xiaoqin is one of Sui Guiyun's many "children".
Over the years, whenever he sees a child in need, Sui Guiyun will always give love as soon as possible. In 2009, Sui Guiyun saw in the newspaper that Xiao Chen (pseudonym), a prospective college student, could not pay tuition due to family difficulties, and she immediately took out 20,000 yuan to help her complete her college studies. Four years later, after learning that Xiao Chen had been admitted to graduate school, but the family had no money to go to school due to another accident, Sui Guiyun discussed with her husband and continued to sponsor Xiao Chen until she graduated from graduate school. After graduation, Xiao Chen successfully entered a state-owned enterprise and started a family in Shanghai, and after returning to her hometown, she knelt down to thank Sui Guiyun in person. "It was Sui's mother who changed my life." Nowadays, every Spring Festival, Xiao Chen will bring her husband to talk to "Sui's mother" about family life.
In 2003, a little boy in Shouguang City suffered from severe aplastic anemia and urgently needed treatment costs of 300,000 yuan. Considering his limited strength, Sui Guiyun actively contacted caring people and set up a severe aplastic anemia rescue and care group with them, and successively launched a series of donation and relief actions such as "Rescue Yadea", "Save Rose" and "Rescue Xiao Yueyue".
Of course, Sui Guiyun's love is not limited to the local area, as long as she sees students in need, she will help them as soon as possible.
"At least 20,000 yuan a year to subsidize students in need" is the goal Sui Guiyun set for himself in 1998.

Today, these annual routine actions are initiated by Sui Guiyun and led by the surrounding volunteers.

"I haven't done enough! I have been engaged in public welfare for many years, and I have felt too much and gained more. For Sui Guiyun, doing public welfare is not only about paying, but also about gaining.
